Weed Eater help?
 

I have a Weedeater GTI 19 straight shaft trimmer, having trouble figuring out how the starter engauges ,I have taken it apart seems ok put back it works a time or two then it doesnt enguage , they were a common trimmer anyone had this problem?and have a fix
I think most parts are obsolete but mine seem ok

Saw a Craftsman with that problem the other day. It has 2 plastic pins less than an 1/8" dia that come out to engage flywheel. Not real sturdy. Need full engagement before you let her rip. Mike

Throw it away and invest in one like the professional use...Echo, Stihl...etc!

The best "weed eater" around is a goat on a rope I used to have.
I can Stihl hear the Echo in the hills BAAAAAHHHHHH :biggrin2:

ol'George is the best!

Found that problem ,now onto the fuel ,lets get a new clunk

Roundup works for me. course I don't like grass much. I still have nightmares of chopping cotton in the 50s and 60s. Thank god for the draft got me out of the fields. :Salute:
